Salvone's house B&B

The waterfront is literally a minute away, and buses pass regularly for Taormina, though the timetable can be a bit erratic, if you know what I mean. This is a really nice B&B for a decent price, with good Wi-Fi and spotlessly clean rooms. The walk to the train station takes about seven or eight minutes, but there's no footpath, so it can feel a little yikes 😬.

The price was outstanding for the excellent service and delicious croissants at breakfast. It's a magnificent B&B, just a five-minute walk from the station. With Taormina so overloaded with tourists, it was nice to stay a little away from the old town's chaos.

Breakfast on the terrace was sumptuous, with cold meats and cheese as well as juice, croissants and fresh fruit. Salvadore was welcoming and friendly. The room had traditional decor, a hot shower and lots of storage, along with a large double bed, sofa and chair. There was also a small balcony with a table and chairs overlooking a busy road, but once we shut the windows we could hardly hear anything. Salvone's House exceeded expectations. Close to the train station and to buses for town and the beach, it's an ideal place to stop when visiting Taormina.

We were satisfied with our quick stopover during the trip. Good location, a very good quality-to-price ratio, and a nice host.
